Email archiving helps to facilitate the long-term retention, management and discovery of information to optimize IT efficiencies and lower business risk. But as messaging volume grows, organizations are becoming increasingly interested in controlling storage and operation costs by utilizing message classification.

By automatically classifying email (for example, as business, personal or garbage), organizations can zero in and decide whether or not to store a message. They can then set granular retention policies across different categories of information and determine the optimal storage media to utilize - helping to significantly lower operations costs as they keep the size of the archive in check. Additionally, accurate classification of messages provides context and relevance, enabling easier retrieval and processing.

Because Data Classification Services is built on Symantec Data Loss Prevention technology, you will be able to share policies between solutions. That means the policies you create with Data Loss Prevention may be used with Symantec Enterprise Vault Data Classification, and vice versa, although the response you configure will likely be different for each solution. Still, this ability to share policies - and Data Classification Services ships with 70 pre-configured policies out of the box - between solutions provides you with a consistent, unified approach for protecting, managing and retaining information.

Enterprise Vault Data Classification Services helps staff responsible for legal and regulatory compliance to rapidly identify and access the highest priority communication they need in order to retrieve, review, audit and produce documents. This is accomplished through tagging, and during the review process, authorized users can use Symantec Enterprise Vault Discovery Accelerator to filter results. Customizable tags can be used to exclude messages, such as privileged communications, when responding to a subpoena or preparing for litigation. Tagging also integrates with Symantec Enterprise Vault Compliance Accelerator, helping set priority to items that should be proactively reviewed (for example, inappropriate communications, policy violations, Human Resources issues, etc.).
